I have had the Vivid decanter for some time now. Although it is very pretty on the table and it's shape is perfect for aerating, it has 2 flaws. First: It drips a lot. I always have to put a napkin around the neck when pouring. Second and most important: when you get to the bottom of the decanter, you can't get the last remianing wine poured out. It is such a perfect circle and the bottom is so flat that the wine is stuck in the bottom. You then naturally tip the decanter over even more, trying ever so carefully to get the wine out, but it always seems to pour wine all over the table, because the wine starts to come out of all the sides.
